Description of the problem	This car was purchase new from the dealership. It has always been serviced by the dealership. After a recent oil change i heard a "whine" noise in the rearend so i took it into the dealership. After inspection they say i need a new rear end for $2000 and that it is not covered under warranty because on previous work they mentioned that a change in fluid was requested. If this change in fluid was so important why was i not informed. This is like a doctor saying if you do not do this you will die. I also have purchased a second kia from this dealership and am very loyal. Now i feel that both kia and the dealership have thrown me under the bus. Who can one trust in today's world.
